We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

I consider the oral history of @kickstarterunited.org a foundational resource for organizing in the tech industry and I hope our stories from unionizing at Mapbox can be too: www.kickstarter.com/projects/cla...

With the HP trailer dropping tomorrow, here's the whole deal: If you watch the show, hell even just the trailer, I will think less of you. I will dislike you. I will think you don't care about trans people. That's it. It's been years. There's no wiggle room. No qualifiers. You care or you don't.

do yourself a favor folks, if you're 26 or younger, make a plan to dodge the draft. it's not making the problem about you -- the child you don't go overseas to kill will thank you for it in fact. and if it doesn't come to pass, better to have a plan and not need it than need it and not have it

Did you know that theres a lot of events happening at Trump properties? Govts, private groups, and political fundraisers are having their events at Trump properties around the globe: new from @catebrown.bsky.social + me

Useful FYI for Instagram if you haven't already done so:

Any car that hasn't moved in the period between the last storm ending and the next storm beginning should immediately be towed, stripped of hazardous materials, and dumped into the Atlantic Ocean to become artificial reefs like they do with old subway cars.

I'm so excited to announce that my insect damask washi tapes are now up for sale! I think they printed beautifully, and I achieved the effect of beautiful patterns that reveal buggy friends when you take a closer look. I really hope people enjoy them!

suck barbed cock in hell, Will Lewis.

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries. One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home. Abolish the billionaire class:

Will Lewis is resigning as WaPo CEO, former Tumblr CEO Jeff D’Onofrio is the paper’s new acting CEO and publisher, per memos to staff

The layoffs at WaPo also hit their software engineers. Its a tricky situation because they were negotiating their first contract. They worked diligently for years and organized the second largest software engineering union in the country. Just awful

A new study from sociology researchers at Hunter University found that Delivery Workers are the safest cyclists on the road.

Don't use biometrics to lock your devices. All media organizations should ban for all employees

Fox News thinks it's the New York Times. The New York Times thinks it's Fox News. The Washington Post thinks it's the hamburglar

Silicon valley is the epicenter of American fascism

i do genuinely think we need to jail every single person currently working for ICE

Statement from the entire Minneapolis City Council in support of a General Strike and Day of Truth & Freedom on January 23rd.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

i wanna bulldoze all of oaklands highways

The night after the Citicorp Center live show we happened to walk by the legend herself. Thank you for not taking out the city ma'am, have a nice evening.

For those who haven't been on the boulevard in thew last year, the data alone tells us that there has been a positive transformation: pedestrian deaths fell from 7 in 2023 to 0 so far this year. Yep, zero. More yet to do! @tvrr.bsky.social www.oakrapidresponse.org/posts/intern...

Massive congratulations are owed to the folks at @tvrr.bsky.social for their work on International Boulevard. It is *unquestionable* that their advocacy has saved multiple lives, something not many people can say. Quick 🧵on their blog post. www.oakrapidresponse.org/posts/intern...

It's time once again for my annual #treebybike post. This is the 12/19/42 cover of @newyorker.com, so one full year after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This would be the first real Christmas alone, or without a family member, for millions in the US. Gas and tire rationing had begun earlier that year.🗃️

Today, hundreds of workers at Environmental Defense Fund announced the launch of EDF Together — the largest environmental union in the US. We’re asking EDF to voluntarily recognize our union so that we can begin building a better EDF, together. Learn more: edftogether.org

The Guardian is tracking the Trump administration's campaign of mass deportation. Since Trump was inaugurated, ICE and CBP: - arrested nearly 290,000 people - deported more than 290,000 people As of Nov 17, 65,000 people are in immigration detention, an all time high

My latest: The latest detention management figures are out, covering the entire shutdown. While federal workers were furloughed, ICE arrested and detained approximately 54,000 people and deported approximately 56,000 people.

Workers from @sbworkersunited.org put their bodies on the line today, shutting down Starbucks' distribution center in York, PA, the largest in the US Stand in solidarity with these working-class heroes, DON'T BUY STARBUCKS ANYWHERE UNTIL THEY WIN THEIR STRIKE

Annapurna in Old Oakland doesn't get nearly enough patrons for how amazing the food is Highly recommend eating here! maps.app.goo.gl/bu8Gk75Ac9Dc...

WE'RE DOING WOKE JIHAD BABY

Commie corridor total cultural victory

It seems bad that only $668 million of California's $31 billion transportation budget is for public transit capital projects next year. HSR gets another $798 million. $1.45 billion out of $31 billion. It's a hidden form of climate arson.
